Everton ace Lukaku: Goalscoring form due to hard work at Finch Farm

Everton striker Romelu Lukaku is delighted to be reaping the rewards of hard work on the training pitch.

Lukaku revealed he has been putting in hours on the training ground to allow him to score such goals as he did at West Bromwich Albion.

He told evertonfc.com: "We were working on it in training two days before the game and I missed a lot!

"But practice makes perfect. I was very happy that it went in against West Brom."

However, far more important was the Toffees' first win of the campaign, and a welcome clean sheet to top it off.

He added: "It was a nice goal but the win is the most important thing. We wanted to win so badly.

"The defence did some great work today and up front we made the difference so it was down to great team work."
